Morrissey to play a wedding this summer?

While surfing some personal finance sites earlier, the last place I'd expect to come across a Morrissey blurb, I came across this very interesting post:

The Simple Dollar Morning Roundup: Come Back To Camden Edition 2 comments - The Simple Dollar

A close friend of mine is getting married this summer. The entire wedding and reception is going to apparently be themed around the 80’s band The Smiths and their lead singer Morrissey. Rumor has it that Morrissey may actually sing at the reception. They plan on having their first dance to the song Come Back To Camden, hence the title of this post. Apparently, a very wealthy relative of theirs is bankrolling the whole thing because he wants them to have a wedding that they will never, ever forget. Wow. Part of me wants to go to make a bootleg recording of the reception...

      Jealous much? We all know the rich can get anything they want. Morrissey is not above it. Don't you think he would say "Fine, I'll do your wedding for no less than $1 million." He is not a god, only human. Never for a Smiths reunion, but no one has offered him 100 million for it yet. He needs as much money as we do. Besides I think he would get off getting all the attention instead of the fat bride.

      MONEY CHANGES EVERYTHING!

            this story is complete rubbish and i know because they turned down my offer to play my gran's funeral.

                  see a lot of Morrissey songs as being appropriate
                  for heralding in a wedding.
                  Might even be bad luck for the couple!

                        Clearly not likely to happen, but it'd be hilarious if Moz turned up and launched into 'I Know Its Over'. Followed by 'Asleep'. Followed by 'Will Never Marry'...

                          He's a business man. It's his profession. Moz is rich but not spectacuarly. He'd do a couple of songs for £500,000.

                          And he might like the idea of two of his fans wanting this to happen so much. Considered that? He might even be honoured.
